The resolution of a story follows the excitement of the climax. The climax, the highest point of dramatic tension, usually presents a choice or final test for the protagonist. In The Bronze Bow, the climax involves the vengeful Daniel embracing Jesus's message of forgiveness. The resolution shows the consequences of that change.

In the final scene, Daniel invites the soldier Marcus into his home. Marcus is a Roman soldier in love with Daniel's sister, Leah. Earlier, this romance was a touchy subject for Daniel. His father and uncle were killed by the Romans, causing the young Daniel to hate all of them. His hatred of the Romans extends to anyone affiliated with them, which includes Marcus, who is not a native-born Roman but a German from conquered territory. Even though Marcus is at heart a decent person, Daniel is too blinded by hate to see beyond his connection with the Romans.

By the end, Daniel has experienced a great inner change. The resolution shows that he has taken Jesus's message to heart and can apply it in his daily life. In this sense, the resolution gives the reader a glimpse of the man Daniel will grow to become now that he has been able to put his hatred aside.
